To stay on topic, I reccomend we all read the article on School at encyclopedia dramatica and discuss it here.

What I hate about schools is that they tend to take the "victim's" word over yours, Example: Someone trips you in the hall, you stand up and knock their books out of their hand. No matter how many whitnesses you have, you're allways the one in trouble, and the guy that tripped you is a perfect little angle, it's telling these kids that they can get away with things, and it's not a good example.

Another example. There was a kid at my school who has a minor (VERY minor) mental disorder. Meaning he has trouble fitting in with other people, and gets an average C grade. He one time got tired of people calling him names like "stupid" and "moron" because he forgets his locker number almost every day, so he brough a knife to school and just sat there in the middle of the hall waiting for these kids to come around the corner. Of course, standing in the middle of a hallway in the open right ouside a classroom with a knife isn't a good way to not be seen. So the teachers caught him, he was taken to the office, where he went into a big sob story about how he was tired of being picked on and just wanted to scare people away from him. He got suspended for a month instead of an expulsion because he "doesn't entirely understand" and his mom complained to the principal. The kids he wanted to threaten still got detensions for about a month for making fun of someone who's "different"

i hate assembelies because they are so very, very christian. in a state school and all. thats just wrong. they allways talk about how someone raised loads of money for charity, then tell us lazy people off for doing what we do best. sucks. i liked charity before them.

hahahah!! i know you wrote this AGES ago...but you made a good point!! assemblies were soley created to torture poeple & the only thing you learn from them is, well nothing. prehaps how to sleep with your eyes open(?)..... & i love ur pic!!....not to sure bout ur PM though!!!

Heck welcome to my world:

For a whole 2 years I had a problem with 2 boys in my year.

We'd (me and a few other boys) would be sitting on the table opposite them in the lunch hall. I was sitting down eating and one of the other boys on the table passed me a drink. I picked it up, recognised it was one of the type that the two boys drink. So I went to bring it back over as I could see one of them hovering around our table. About 20 seconds after I had returned the drink and sat down the boy I had returned it to ran full pelt accross the hall and football tackled me off my seat. In reaction I stood up with my field hockey stick and started threatening him. He shouted at me and luckily a lunch lady interveened.

Next lesson I was summoned to the head of years office for bullying. I was like WTF?

The thing was that these two boys pretended to be...... well.....retards, so of course they could start a fight, and still be the angel in the teachers eyes!!!

Various events like this went on through the year, man it annoyed me!

I also remember when I was little, a boy was bullying me and upset me in a big way. The person bullying me was an affection seeker, so he'd fabricate extraordinary lies such as that his mother had had 17 miscarrages, he had two still born brothers cryogenically frozen in Glasgow etc. So after he bullied me I got my own back, a friend of mine was a bit of a thug, so he started bullying him back whilst I provided him with these extravagent lies! Then I got suspended for bullying. I was like "Hey he started it! If he can't take it he shouldn't give it!".

circumstance and point of view are key in this to him it looks like you stole the drink and that you're just returning it to look funny. To you, you seem like a good samaritin.

I hate that! Ghandi once said "an eye for an eye makes the world all blind" I've always 2 things about that 1) if you can't fight back you're gonna end up in bad shape and 2) its survival of the fittest ghandi...

also I hate people who fabricate nonsense lies but whats worse is when people believe them...

even though lying can be unethicall (sometimes) but in order to surivie, or in this case not getting in trouble.....you need to lie. pick up how people lie, and when they lie. being a manipulator is such an important skill, socially. TRUST ME IT HELPS!!! practise on poeple, and before you know it you'll b "tricking people"....poeple think im soooo innocent.....looks R decievin!! (BRAVO for getting revenge! it feels gr8!) ......... (excuse my spellin!)

[chuck norris]

I for example am a fantastic liar but very rarely lie unless it falls in the whiter half of the gray area.

WOOOW!! well that makes one of us then!! but lying is an important part of being human & ESPICALLY when it comes to saving yourself. i dont call it lying, i call it....."twisting of the truth"..... (watching heroes SOOO COOL!! wat power would you have? would you use it for the good of man kind??)

[chuck norris]

well its not twisting the truth if you snap it in half. I simply call it lying because if its twisting the truth then that means a part of the truth is still there which in some cases, its not.

[house4eva]

yeah, you do have a point!! but if you know dat your a good lier surely you would use it, not only for the "good".....no human is that (whats the word?) self...erm....sacrificin??......what im trying to say is that its not normal for people to only lie sometimes..........its very in-human like!!

[klondike mac]

i tell it like it is and try not to lie
but i cnosider it my duty to twist and bend the rules
in every way without breaking them

I'll tell a lie for my own purposes sometimes but I try not to.
